She tries again for the 100th time. Not quite yet. She stands up, messy hair falling across her face, grinning.
I would've given up long ago. But not Ellie. She's a determined soul. She will do this. Maybe not today, or tomorrow, or next week. But eventually - she's going to complete the mission.
Today that goal is for gymnastics. Tomorrow it may be for school. And years from now, who knows what mission God will put in her path.
But I do know this: whatever it is, wherever He takes her - this child's determination and spirit will get the job done. Our prayer for her is that one day, she surrenders her life to His will. And when that happens - watch out, world.
But for today - mission accomplished.
